How can i send Solaris syslog loging server?
HI

how can i send solaris syslog to centralized logging server?

i have tried adding like below and got error:
Code:
*.err;kern.debug;daemon.notice;mail.crit        @172.16.200.50:5000

and the error i got in /var/adm/messages is:
Code:
Jun 10 13:02:24 aresdb-new.alshaya.com syslogd: line 14: WARNING: 172.16.200.50:5000 could not be resolved
Jun 10 13:02:24 aresdb-new.alshaya.com syslogd: line 25: WARNING: loghost could not be resolved

how to fix this?

You did not get an ERROR but a WARNING, which states it cannot resolve the specifed address. Can you resolve 172.16.200.50 via nslookup from command line ?

Have you checked if the central syslog server is receiving logs from the box ?

it's pining from client machine.

Code:
root@aresdb-new.example.com #nslookup 172.16.200.50
Server:         172.16.100.19
Address:        172.16.100.19#53

** server can't find 50.200.16.172.in-addr.arpa: NXDOMAIN

root@aresdb-new.example.com #ping 172.16.200.50
172.16.200.50 is alive

Is the syslog port (514) open on the server? The daemon running? Listening on 5000? 514?

Old 06-10-2015
yes the port is 5000 not 514 and it's listening to that port

Have you checked is remote syslog machine receiving logs from that specific host ?
